Project Nim

They made a movie called "Man on Wire." This movie is about Nim, the chimpanzee who was the subject of a groundbreaking experiment in the 1970s. It was meant to show that an ape could learn to communicate with language if it was raised and cared for just like a human child. When we see Nim's journey through human society, we see how he has had an impact on all those he meets. The film is an unflinching and unsweet biography of an animal we tried to make human. Seeing how he's really like and how we're really like is both funny and deeply disturbing.
